Richard Saturnino Owens known as Rick Owens, is an American fashion designer from Porterville, California.

 

His own label, begun in 1994, selling exclusively to Charles Gallay, a pioneering Los Angeles retailer who kept Owens in business for several years.

 

His design reflects its inspiration, the origins of humanity; it recalls a mysterious ancient civilization. Its aura is one of spiritual ritual, archaic ceremony and supreme power.
